They have had a Calder Cup team there the last couple seasons, but the past coaching has sucked a big one. The teams as a result have fallen short. Good to see them finally have a coach that can push them hard and have success.

I think Paterson is just in GR so they can get a good look at him since they didn't have a training camp and because Saginaw is out of the playoffs in the OHL. He'll probably go back to Saginaw for one more year next season.

It's doubtful that Coreau is in Detroit to replace Gustavsson. Probably just to give them an extra goalie to practice with for the rest of the season. He is slated to take Pierce's place as #5 since Pierce isn't coming back next season.

McCollum will probably re-sign for one more season just to give the Wings some organizational depth before Paterson signs.

Cordeau will just be helping during practices. Why would they replace Gus with some untested kid going into playoffs? It's illogical. Like others have said, its just musical chairs to satisfy roster rules.

Wouldn't Cordeau be a replacement for Pearce on the depth chart? Kid is done, he'll be 27 this fall and hasn't amounted to diddly. Let a real prospect start in Toledo...?

That's exactly what I stated in my post.... Not sure what you are getting at....?

Interesting, although I doubt it's anything substantial.

What's that? Playoffs? Don't talk about playoffs? You kidding me? Playoffs?! I just hope we can win a game. Another game.

Jim Mora, FTW.
